Business for Sale Overview:
The Popeye’s story began in New Orleans back in 1972, when Al Copeland opened a quick-service restaurant called "Chicken on the Run," selling traditional mild fried chicken to the downtown lunch crowd. But business was slow, and Copeland realized that he would have to develop a spicier alternative to his standard chicken recipe if he wanted to impress flavor-seeking New Orleanians. Experimenting with the flavorful Cajun recipes he had been enjoying all his life, Copeland developed a new menu, reopened his restaurant - now called "Popeyes"- and soon had customers lining up around the block for his spicy New Orleans-style fried chicken.
